- 19. Embodied spirit isan animating core living within each of us. It is known to be the driving force behind what we actually think, do and say. It is indeed the reflections of our total being by which our sensations lead to our human feelings, emotions and decision.
- 20. The usual andknown connotation that comes to our mind when we hear the word “embodied” is always materialized or became flesh (with physical form). Thus, when we say “embodied spirit”, we normally believed and conclude of a spirit becoming flesh.
- 21. In the contextand views of Christian philosophy, the embodiment of the spirit particularly refers to the inseparable union of human body and soul. Inseparable which also means the body and soul work together at all times.
- 22. Hence, we cansafely say that “embodied spirit” that the body is not separate from the soul, just as the soul is not separate from the body.

- 25. 1. “Self- awarenessrefers to person having a clear perception of oneself, including his or her thoughts, emotions, identity, and actions (Abella, 2016).” It is the ability of one’s consciousness to look inward thus discovering the presence of a self.
- 26. The self isthe subject that thinks, feels and acts. It is your I am ness (Wilber, 2006). The self enables a person to experience an inner world of dreams, thoughts, imagination, fantasy (Abella, 2016). Thus, the self represents man’s interiority (loob in Filipino).
- 27. 2. A humanperson is able to connect and interact with another person, an animal or an inanimate object. We call this externality. So even though human beings have interiority they are not trapped inside their heads. They are able to go beyond their limited selves and
- 28. 3. We arenot determined by others. Because we have interiority; we can direct the course of our own life. This is what we call self- determination which is “the capability of persons to make choices and decisions based on their own preferences, monitor and
- 29. oriented and self-directed”(Abella 2016) Thus human beings are free. However since our actions are based on our decisions we have to realized that every decision has a consequence(s). There are some actions that are good because they lead to good consequences and
- 30. some actions arebad because they lead to bad consequences. The result of our freedom is morality which is “the goodness or badness of an act” (Abella 2016)
- 31. 4. Finally ahuman person has an inherent value and importance. This is what we call dignity. That is why no amount of money can equal the value of a human life. This is also the reason why individual rights are absolute (Rand 1964).
- 32. The American FoundingFathers called rights as “inalienable” because it cannot be separated from our humanity. If we are stripped off of our rights we are stripped of our humanity. That is why slaves (who have no rights) are not being treated as human.

Editor's Notes
- #2 Playing with your friends or classmates all day long then waiting for a certain time for afternoon’s anime or fictional movies like Slamdunk, Flame of Recca, Dragon Ball, Princess Sarah, Cinderella and Snow White? Maybe you are wondering as to why we need to remember those days when everything was plain and simple. You might ask me why? Why do we have to go back and remember our childhood days? What is the relevance of our childhood memories to our present times? You will find out, later.
- #4 Do you believe that there is a big difference between MAN, PERSON, and HUMAN not only with the definition but its usage to the society as a whole? Pet peeve – something that annoys or bothers a person very much
- #5 Human race- all of the living human inhabitants of the earth
- #7 Humans are classified as mammals because humans have the same distinctive features found in all members of this large group. Humans are also classified within: the subgroup of mammals called primates; and the subgroup of primates called apes and in particular the 'Great Apes'
- #8 a human being is any member of the genus Homo sapiens that is distinguished from other animals by having superior intelligence and articulate speech. Most importantly, our rational intelligence enables us to have free will.
- #9 A person is the type of entity that possesses a mind. (The mind does not have always to be conscious: a sleeping or comatose person is still a person.) We can be more specific. Not just any mental being is a person. My cat is a mental being – it can feel pain or hunger, for example – yet it is not a person.
- #10 Personhood is the status of being a person. a philosophical concept designed to determine which individuals have human rights and responsibilities. Personhood may be distinguished by possession of defining characteristics, such as consciousness and rationality, or in terms of relationships with others.
- #11 human nature. noun. : the nature of human beings. especially : the ways of thinking, acting, and reacting that are common to most or all human beings or that are learned in social situations. Humans have a moral sense because their biological makeup determines the presence of three necessary conditions for ethical behavior: (i) the ability to anticipate the consequences of one's own actions; (ii) the ability to make value judgments; and (iii) the ability to choose between alternative courses of action.
- #12 From the definition provided above, the human and the person, respectively, are defined with classified origin of species and persons with birth rights. Human person is someone with an exact origin of his/her classification. From the biblical perspective, we came from Adam and Eve. For Science, we came from an Ape under the Class: Mamallia.
- #13 Human person from time after time learned how to live beyond what was traditional through the various human evolutions from Hominid to Homo Sapiens or the Modern Man people learn the concept of power, politics and economics.
- #14 These reasons served as basis which led to a more structured political and economic system. Thus, rights of an individual is considered. A human person is typically with a body which is tangible and has a three components composed of SOUL, MIND and SPIRIT. Also, he or she is entitled and granted rights and privileges by the state which he or she legally belong.
- #19 The convergence between the material and spiritual entities, that is, between the body and soul.
- #29 Stop (st. bernadtte Wednesday)
- #34 We have encountered persons who complain of any given situations or accept the reality or status in life as God-given thing. We heard a man sighing on TV during the early stage of Covid-19, “mahirap maging mahirap.” Though it is true that poverty is not just personal but also structural, as an individual person you know that you can do something to change the situation.
- #35 This power is your ability to surpass your limits. This is the definition of
- #36 Religion and philosophy teaches human beings to overcome our limits. In technological parlance, humans can upgrade themselves. Take for example, Buddhism. Buddha realized that all people suffers. Maybe in your case you just accept your own suffering as part of life but not for Buddha. This reality ignited his curiosity to examine and understand the word suffering. He left his royal life in the palace and spent his life for 6 years in the wilderness to find answers for his questions. And when he sat under the Tree of Enlightenment for 40 days, voila he finds the answers
